Want to buy a house for less than you’d usually need to save up for a deposit? ‘Course you do. But you’ll need to do some work.
Want to buy a house for less than you’d usually need to save up for a deposit?This two-bedroom house in Fenton, Staffordshire, is indeed going up for auction with a starting price of just £5,000… but that’s because it needs, as the listing puts it, ‘cosmetic improvement’.This is apparent from the moment you open the front door, where mounds of mail clutter the hallway.
It looks like the former residents did something to do with ceramics, or ceramic mould making, as you’ll find all sorts of paraphenalia littered throughout the space.On the ground floor sit two reception rooms, both with rubble and dust on the floor along with pottery-related items. Also on this level is the kitchen, where the paint on the walls has chipped away and a microwave sits among the detritus, and a bathroom, where the sink and bathtub appear to be filled with yet more ceramics gear.It’s in need of some work… Basically, unless you, too, are a ceramicist, you might need to rent a skip. And you’ll need to give everything a good clearout and scrub down regardless.Outside is an overgrown garden with yet more rubbish among the grass.
The listing states: ‘The property would make an excellent investment and could potentially be suitable for a further extension to the rear, subject to planning permission.’
